Walsh will grant academic credit for military experience based on ACE recommended guidelines and requirements. Walsh also follows the American Council on Education (ACE) recommended guidelines and scores to award academic credit for approved DANTES/DSST exams. Approved academic credit will be transferred to Walsh as general credit. Walsh may determine possible equivalency to required coursework through ACE recommendations, accredited community college acceptance of credit, and/or academic department chair review. ACE recommended academic credit for military credit is listed on an official JST (Joint Services Transcript), CCAF (Community College of the Air Force), or CGI (Coast Guard Institute) transcript. Unofficial copies of transcripts may be submitted for the initial admissions evaluation process with official transcripts required for full admission as noted in the Admission to Walsh sections of the handbook. Credit hours categorized as L = Lower Level; U = Upper Level; and G = Graduate Level are acceptable and may be reviewed for possible equivalent credit.
